Swartland Alluvium Fynbos
Swartland Alluvium Fynbos is a critically endangered vegetation type that occurs on the high plains and mountains in the far south-west of the Western Cape, South Africa.
Only 6% of this type of Fynbos remains and it has been declared critically endangered. It can still be found in the Western Cape, between the towns of Stellenbosch and Porterville, with a tiny portion extending into the city of Cape Town. [1]
